Specifies
Enable/disable the MAX unit to respond to multicast clients on the
WAN link. Multicast is a transmission method in which one device
communicates with destination hosts by means of a single
transmission to all recipients on a subscriber list. Clients cannot be
supported on the multicast interface, so another WAN link or the local
Ethernet supports a multicast router.
interface.
Specifies
Primary Domain Name System (DNS) server address to be sent to any
client connecting to the MAX unit. Client DNS has two levels: a
global configuration that applies to all PPP connections, and a
Connection-specific configuration that applies to that connection only.
The global client addresses are used only if none are specified in the
Connection profile. You can also choose to present your local DNS
servers if no client servers are defined or available.
Secondary DNS server address to be sent to any client connecting to
the unit.
Whether or not client DNS server addresses will appear while this
connection is being negotiated.
A Connection-specific default route to be used for forwarding packets
received on this connection. The unit uses this default route instead of
the system-wide Default route in its routing table. This route is
Connection-specific, so it is not added to the routing table.
